Brides of Ohio (58 page)

“What if someone finds out about my father?”

His face hardened a little. “No one is going to find out. I’ll bankrupt McCord Steel if I have to.”

The relief she felt was so intense she laid her head on his chest.

“So you’ll marry me?” he whispered into her hair.

Anne raised her head. Unable to resist, she gave him a roguish smile of her own. “Are you sure you know what you’re getting into? I can’t cook, I can’t sew, and I’d rather be in a stable than the kitchen—”

Anne’s words were stopped by a kiss that she returned fully with a restored heart.

Author’s Note

S
cioto’s care and treatment mentioned in these pages is drawn from
Magner’s Classic Encyclopedia of the Horse
, originally published in 1887. I apologize for any errors made regarding horse care in the nineteenth century. It was purely unintentional.

At the time of this story, what most Ohio State students and alumni now call University Hall was known as the Main Building, and Mirror Lake was simply called “the Lake.” To see the dramatic changes that have taken place on the university campus from 1871 to the present, I encourage you to visit The Ohio State University Interactive Historical Campus Map at knowlton.osu.edu/historymap as well as the John H. Herrick Archives at
